MIDDLE SCHOOL 

​

While at PS126/MAT students will engage in a creative and rigorous curriculum that is geared towards fostering collaboration, inquiry, research, public speaking, and overall social-emotional development.  Students will interact and incorporate technology in the core classes, with opportunities to learn coding, animation, and robotics.  In eighth grade, students will be offered the coursework necessary to take the Earth Science and Algebra 1 Regents exams as well as the Spanish Language Proficiency exam.

​

Our elective program allows students to major in fine arts, percussion, or band, providing students the necessary skills and preparation for high school auditions.  Additionally, we have an extensive competitive sports program that offers sports for all students.

Pre - Kindergarten 

    We have created a positive learning environment where children feel safe and nurtured. Our teachers in all classrooms work together to create engaging units of study that are aligned with NYC Pre K for All standards. Teachers create many hands-on collaborative experiences that build a strong community while learning about a particular topic.

    We're always working to improve our practice. Teachers have common planning time where they hash out ideas and try out concepts before bringing them to their students. They also work with an instructional leader to collaborate and share ideas for best practice,  as well as visiting

other schools throughout the city so that best city-wide practices can be observed and adapted to meet the needs of our school/students.
